Lean Body Meal Plans
Introduction
With these meal plans at your fingertips, there is absolutely no guesswork for you
whatsoever. You will never have to ask yourself, “What should I eat? How much
should I eat? What foods should I combine together?”
You will notice that we did not include an exact time during the day to eat each
meal. This is because everyone has a different schedule. There are, however, a
couple of simple rules that you must follow to ensure that you get the most out of
these meal plans. They are as follows:
1.) Never skip breakfast. Your first meal of the day will always be eaten within 1
hour of awakening.
2.) All meals will be spaced out between 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours apart.
3.) Drink the majority of your daily water requirement in between meals.
4.) Watch out for hidden calories in your food preparation. Extra bread crumbs, oils,
butter, creams, sauces, and sugar should be completely avoided. In general, your
lean sources of protein should be grilled, broiled or baked, rather than fried. Also,
make sure to limit your salt consumption as much as you can, since sodium can lead
to water retention.
5.) To reduce additional oil consumption, you can use with Pam cooking spray.
In addition, you may want to refer to the Lean Lifestyle Recipe Book. In this
awesome cookbook, you will learn how to make delicious, mouth watering recipes
using the healthy ingredients in your diet. Ready to get started? Bon appetite!

Food Sensitivity
An Important Consideration
Foods to which you are sensitive or allergic can wreak major havoc with your fat loss
results. If any of the foods in your diet cause you to experience nausea, diarrhea,
bloating, gas, or hives, you should avoid them completely, or at the very least,
greatly reduce your consumption of them.
In the back of this book, you will find your very own nutritional almanac. In each
food category (protein, carbs, fats, etc.), you will find many foods to choose from.
If you find yourself having a negative reaction to any of the foods listed, simply
substitute those foods with others in the same category. This will ensure that you
are safely steering clear of these reactive foods.
Even if you don’t currently have any foods sensitivities, it is possible to develop a
food sensitivity or allergy by eating any certain food too often. Thus, you should
make sure that you rotate your foods regularly, and use variety in your diet. This
also makes your dieting less boring and healthier as well.
I’d also like to note that over the years I have found dairy to be the most common
reactive food. This is why instead of listing “whey protein” (a dairy product) in the
sample diets, I simply listed “protein powder” instead. This allows you the flexibility
to choose your protein powder from a variety of sources. In the nutritional almanac
(page 61), you will see protein powders from made pea, rice, soy, and whey. Even
if you can tolerate dairy, I suggest that you do not use it exclusively in your protein
shakes.
So be sure to keep an eye out for any of the above mentioned symptoms, so that
you can eliminate any “reactive” foods from your diet.

Lean Body Meal Plans
In this section you will find sample meal plans for Phase 1. All possible caloric
intakes are included. Thus, you can simply look to the meal plan that is appropriate
for your specific caloric needs.
Note that in the “Quantity” row you will see a (c) or a (pc) next to certain quantities.
A (c) indicates that the particular food will be measured after it is cooked and a (pc)
indicates that the food will be measured in a pre-cooked state.
Also note that there are letters on the far left of each diet. These letters stand for
the particular type of food listed (P = protein, SC = starchy carb, FC = fibrous carb,
F= healthy fat, FR = fruit). The ‘X’ stands for “exchange”, because you can
exchange these foods, based on their type.
In other words, these diets are flexible. You can exchange each food with a
different one of the same type. A list of appropriate food exchanges (and how to
substitute these foods in the proper amounts) is found in the appendix at the end of
this book.

Lean Body Meal Plans
In this section you will find sample meal plans for Phase 2. All possible caloric
intakes are included. Thus, you can simply look to the chart that is appropriate for
your specific caloric needs.
Note that in the “Quantity” row you will see a (c) or a (pc) next to certain quantities.
A (c) indicates that the particular food will be measured after it is cooked and a (pc)
indicates that the food will be measured in a pre-cooked state.
Also note that there are letters on the far left of each diet. These letters stand for
the particular type of food listed (P = protein, SC = starchy carb, FC = fibrous carb,
F= healthy fat, FR = fruit). The ‘X’ stands for “exchange”, because you can
exchange these foods, based on their type.
In other words, these diets are flexible. You can exchange each food with a
different one of the same type. A list of appropriate food exchanges (and how to
substitute these foods in the proper amounts) is found in the appendix at the end of
this book.

Lean Body Meal Plans
The foods here are broken down into several groups. Each food group is separated
even further into an A list and a B list. The A list is the list that you should
emphasize daily. The B list is to be used rotationally for variety, since the food
sources are slightly less desirable for our purposes. Foods that are not on either list
are most likely unhealthy, fat producing or so obscure that I felt it was unnecessary
to include them.
To use this almanac, simply look at the type of food (found in the “X” column) you
want to alter in your original diet. Then find that type in the lists below. Adjust the
quantity of the new food so it has the same number of calories as the food in the
original diet. That way, the total calories of your diet won’t change, even though
you are changing the actual food being eaten.
At the end of this nutritional almanac, you will find two daily diet logging sheets, one
for a 5-meal per day diet, and one for a 6-meal per day diet. Please use whichever
sheet is appropriate for you. Make several copies of it.
That way, if you choose to alter any of your sample diets in any of the ways that we
have discussed, you can write down your alternate diet using these sheets. This will
keep you organized and on track with your eating.

*Note on beef: In order to maximize your fat loss efforts, I recommend that you
eliminate red meat from your diet. I have only included beef on this “B list” for the die
hard meat eater.
Even if this describes you, this particular program REQUIRES you to limit your red meat
consumption to TWICE per month, or less.
